robb himself 143 Report post Posted October 23, 2009 MLIVE.COM: George James Malik dismisses recent rumors suggesting the Detroit Red Wings might move goalie Jimmy Howard to the Toronto Maple Leafs for picks and prospects or offer up Ville Leino and Justin Abdelkader to the LA Kings for Alex Frolov. Malik notes the Wings have invested plenty of time to develop those three and aren't about to dump them now for quick fixes. Personally i think there is NO WAY they ship Leino and Abdelkader to LA for Frolov, that is just rediculous. However I would like to see them aquire him if the price is right. If the Wings actually DO go after Frolov what do you think the trade will be and do you think it is worth it? I propose... Howard + Meech + 2nd pick for Frolov + Ersberg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

haroldsnepsts 4,826 Report post Posted October 23, 2009 No thanks. Frolov is a talented guy, but you want to talk about Lazy and Sucksâ„¢? He has a very questionable work ethic and a lack of focus during games. It's been so bad he was recently a healthy scratch by the Kings coach. And it's not like they're a team with tons of offense to spare. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BuckeyeWingsfan80 209 Report post Posted October 24, 2009 way to contribute Frolov to the Wings isn't happening anyway, but when he says your wild assed guess at a trade and it's a trade that ONLY benefits the Wings isn't going to happen, you should take off the homer glasses.

And as far as I can see, the trade I proposed would not ONLY benefit the Wings because Frolov is not playing all that well for the Kings, has been a healthy scratch a few times already this season and obviously needs a change of scenery. Giving up a 2nd rounder, a versatile d-man that can also play forward, who also needs a change of scenery, and swapping back up goalies for a non-producing Frolov, isnt that one sided... If you didnt think it was a good idea thats all you needed to say...none of your petty remarks were needed. So next time maybe come up with an idea of your own and save your "homer glasses" crap.

eva unit zero 271 Report post Posted October 24, 2009 I like Leino. I was perhaps Justin Abdelkader's only fan on this board when everyone else was blaming him for Holland not drafting Guillaume Latendresse. But I would at the very least take a good, hard look at that deal. Frolov is one of the better wingers in the league, he's still young, and that's not the kind of deal you would expect to see for a guy like Frolov. Think of the Kessel deal or other deals. Frolov is a tier above Kessel, yet you wouldn't get Kessel's return for Leino and Abdelkader. The problem is, if you trade Leino and Abdelkader for Frolov, you now have one fewer forward with an extra 1.25m on the cap. A deal like really happening this might mean Franzen is expected to be out all of the regular season, because that would open the cap space that would be needed to make the deal stick.
